Hehe, there's not a whole lot that could stop me from continuing this story. Well, actually, I guess, there technically is, but they're all rather extreme scenarios, so I guess it's more the odds of my not continuing this story are very low.
As for the watchlist, maybe you accidentally unchecked deviations? If not, well, DA has always had its glitches, so maybe it was just having one of "those" moments.
